"Wang's clothes are neat, but her hair is not tied, and her daughter only wears a middle coat, it can be seen that this man is very familiar with their mother and daughter, so familiar that her daughter does not need to avoid suspicion. These two conditions are met. The candidates are most likely their relatives."

"Alan means..." Chang Lin looked at Lin Shi with scrutiny.

Seeing this, Lin Shi hurriedly yelled: "Why are you looking at me? One of them is my daughter-in-law and the other is my granddaughter. It's too late for me to feel sorry for you. How can you kill them? You are talking nonsense and slander!"

Ji Linglan smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I didn't say you were the murderer."

Lin Shi was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, his face became even more ugly, and he said, "I don't want to listen to your nonsense, this murderer is clearly trying to get money, you don't want to frame us!"

Lin Shi yelled loudly, and the people watching the excitement outside the courtyard were even more curious.An old woman took advantage of the guard at the door not paying attention, walked into the house quickly, did not even look at Lin Xiaoling who was killed at the door, went straight to Lin Shi, and asked eagerly: "Old man, what's going on? Is there any lack of property?"

Lin Shi's eyes flashed, and he said loudly: "It's missing, the money Wang earned from selling tofu this month is gone, as well as her dowry, and the silver bracelet you gave her are all gone. This must be murder. "

The old woman is Wang's mother-in-law, Li Shi. When she heard Lin Shi's words, her expression was obviously taken aback, and then she reacted and howled, saying: "This thief who killed a thousand swords not only killed people, but also robbed money. , that's our life money, how can our family live!"

Li opened his mouth and shut his mouth for money, completely ignoring the two people who died in this room, Ji Linglan frowned when he saw it, and his impression of the two plummeted in his heart.He was too lazy to talk to the two of them, turned his head to look at Chang Lin, and said, "Brother Chang, the murderer was scratched by Mrs. Wang. There should be scars on his body, probably on his hands, forearms, or face."

Although Chang Lin was young, he had a good mind. He turned to look at Lin Shi, saw that there was no scar on his hand, and said, "Where is your second child?"

Lin Shi said anxiously: "Chang Lin, you can't listen to his nonsense. The second child of our family is a person who is going to take a test for fame. His future prospects are limitless. How could he kill his sister-in-law and niece?"

As soon as Chang Lin heard it, he knew that Lin Shi would not tell the truth, so he ignored them and said to the guard at the door: "Dagui, you and Dali go to the back yard and bring Li Zhi to me."

"Yes, head." The two responded, turned and left.

Seeing that Lin Shi was in a hurry, he turned around and was about to chase, but was stopped by Chang Lin.

Chang Lin said threateningly: "Old Lin, I advise you not to go, otherwise I will make you a hindrance to the errand, and hit the top ten boards first."

Lin Shi stopped in his tracks, looked at Chang Lin, and said, "Chang Lin, I watched you grow up anyway, you would rather listen to a young boy than care about our long-term friendship as a neighbor?"

"When I put on this dress, I'm an official servant. What I'm talking about is the law, not love. Alan didn't say who the murderer was, only that the murderer was scratched by Mrs. Wang. If Lin Zhi is innocent, he just needs to be tested. But, no one would embarrass him. But you, who obstructed us so many times, made people even more suspicious. Could it be that your second child is really the murderer?" Chang Lin looked at Lin Shi suspiciously.

"No, no, how is it possible? My second child can't carry it on his shoulders or lift it with his hands. How could he kill someone? I just don't want him to suffer injustice. He is a scholar. Once he is splashed with dirty water and has stains, he will die later. How do you get fame?"

"Whether you are innocent or not, it will be clear when you catch someone and do an injury examination."

After listening to the conversation between the two, Mrs. Li understood one thing even though she was confused, that is, her precious son was suspected of being a murderer, and the instigator was Ji Linglan in front of her.

Ji Linglan was bending over to check the pinch mark on Wang's neck, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Li rushing towards him, and quickly took a step back, but Li couldn't catch up, and lay directly on top of Wang's body, looking Looking at Wang's eyes, she screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted from fright.Immediately afterwards, Ji Linglan smelled a smell of urine, and saw that Li Shi's pants were wet, and yellow urine flowed down the trouser legs to the ground.

Everyone present was stunned. Lin Shi was the first to react. He threw himself in front of Mrs. Li and shouted, "Old woman, what's wrong with you? Old woman, wake up!"

Ji Linglan looked innocently at Li Shi on the bed, but her heart felt much happier. This kind of person should be taught a lesson.

Lin Shi pointed at Ji Linglan and said angrily: "My surname is Ji, our Lin family has no grievances with you, why do you want to kill us?"

Ji Linglan pointed to her nose, and said dumbfoundedly: "There are so many people watching here, she plotted against me, I just took a step back and didn't even touch her with a finger, you think I hurt you? Tsk tsk, she fainted from the shock of her daughter-in-law's corpse, which shows that she has done a lot of bad things in her daily life."

"You...don't just rely on the support of the county magistrate to do whatever you want. I'm really in a hurry. I'll go to the capital to sue the imperial court."

"Sue impeachment? I want to see, who is this unscrupulous person who wants to sue impeachment?"

As soon as the voice fell, a person came in at the door. He was wearing official clothes and a black gauze cap on his head. He was a bit bloated, but he was straight and walked in with square steps.

When everyone saw it, they quickly saluted and said, "This subordinate has seen you."

Ji Linglan also bowed slightly, saluted and said: "Xiaomin has met Mr. Xu."

Xu Jinhai waved his hands quickly, and said with a smile: "Ah Lan, quickly excuse me."

"Thank you sir."

The master who came in with Xu Jinhai brought a grand master's chair from nowhere, put it in the middle of the room, and said courteously: "My lord, sit down."

Xu Jinhai went to sit in front of the grand teacher's chair, glanced at everyone, and finally fell on Ji Linglan, and said: "Alan, what happened here, let me tell you, I want to take a look, this yelling The one who sued the court, how could he be wronged?"

Lin Shi, who was pointing at Ji Linglan's touch of porcelain just now, is now kneeling on the ground without daring to say a word, interpreting bullying to the extreme.

Ji Linglan glanced at Lin Shi, and said: "Then I will explain it to you in detail. Last night, at Haishi, Mrs. Wang had already fallen asleep, and suddenly heard someone calling the door. She recognized the person coming from the voice, because it was Man, she got dressed and went to open the door, and because she was an acquaintance, she didn't pull up her long hair. The man was brought in by her, and she had an argument with her about something, which woke up Lin Xiaoling on the bed. Wang hurried into the room to comfort him , the man followed her in and beat Wang and Lin Xiaoling. Wang resisted and wrestled with the man, so that she was finally strangled by the man and died of suffocation. Lin Xiaoling was frightened and wanted to run away. The man Red-eyed, he picked up the candlestick on the table and threw it at the back of Lin Xiaoling's head, resulting in Lin Xiaoling's skull fracture and death. The man stood beside Lin Xiaoling's body in a daze for a while, and then fled in a hurry. The blood here is the murderer dripped from the murder weapon he held."

Xu Jinhai nodded and said: "Then the murderer is a man, and he is acquainted with Mrs. Wang. In the middle of the night, Mrs. Wang let a man in. Didn't he do something unfeminine?"

"No." Ji Linglan reinterpreted what she said before.

Lin Shi hurriedly said: "My lord, this is just his one-sided words. It's not accurate, my lord. It must be the bitch Wang who hooked up with the man, which caused the murder. It has nothing to do with us. This bitch deserves to die. .”

Xu Jinhai looked regretful, and scolded: "Shut up! Did I let you speak?"

Lin Shi was terrified, but for the sake of his son, he had to go all out.

"My lord, he has no evidence to accuse a good person. He must have evil intentions. My lord, you are clearly aware of the details, and you must definitely fall into his tricks!"

Xu Jinhai looked at Lin Shi with a half-smile, and said, "Old Lintou, do you think that if I am not in the lobby today, I will lose my dignity? If you dare to say anything more, I will let someone drag you out , taste the taste of the board."

Lin Shi's body froze, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Xu Jinhai snorted coldly, he had seen this kind of rascals a lot, and he could only control them with evil.

"Alan, you said that the murder weapon used by the murderer to kill Lin Xiaoling was a candlestick. What basis do you have?"

Ji Linglan walked to the table beside her, pointed to the square mark on it, and said, "Look, my lord, there is dripping wax next to the square mark, there is a half-burned candle under the table, and there is a candle under the candle. The deep round hole indicates that there used to be a candlestick with a square base. The shape of the wound on the back of Lin Xiaoling's head coincides with the corner of the candlestick. In addition, the residue of wax stained on her hair is enough to prove that the murder weapon was Wang's Candlesticks in the house."

Ji Linglan said while showing everyone the basis of his judgment.

"So that's how it is." Xu Jinhai praised without hesitation: "Alan really deserves to be Alan, with quick thinking and careful observation, I am ashamed of myself!"

"My lord praises me absurdly, but the little people are ashamed."

"It's right, it's right." Xu Jinhai looked at Ji Linglan with a smile on his face, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. If he had a daughter, he would definitely betrothed to Ji Linglan.

Footsteps sounded, Wang Gui and Sun Dali came in from the door, saw Xu Jinhai was there, and quickly saluted: "This subordinate has seen you."

Xu Jinhai waved his hand and said, "Did anyone catch it?"

Wang Gui replied: "My lord, my subordinates are incompetent and have not found any trace of Lin Zhi."

"Trash! The criminals have absconded in fear of crime, what are you still doing, don't rush to search!"

"Yes, my lord, this subordinate will go now."

Xu Jinhai looked at Lin Shi who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Old Lintou, where did your second child go?"

Lin Shi was nervous for a while, he didn't dare to lift his head, and said: "My lord, Zhi'er was wronged, Zhi'er is not the murderer, please check it out!"

"Old Lintou, don't play tricks on this official. If he is really innocent, how can he disappear without a trace? He must have a guilty conscience and fled in fear of crime! I advise you to tell the truth. If not, this official will punish you Serve!"

"My lord, Zhi'er went on a long trip yesterday. He said he went to the capital with his friends, but he hasn't returned yet. He wasn't in town at all last night. How could he be a murderer? My lord, please investigate."

"Friend? Which friend? What's your name, and where do you live?"

"This little man is not very clear, I only know that he is a friend who studies together."

Xu Jinhai sneered and said, "Old Lintou, are you coaxing me like a three-year-old child? You really don't know how to live or die! Someone, pull him out, and give him a hard [-]-year-old blow!"

As Xu Jinhai's voice fell, two servants walked in from the door, and after saluting with Xu Jinhai, they went straight to Lin Shi.

Lin Shi looked at it and begged for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord, Xiaomin is old, and the [-]th board can take Xiaomin's life!"

"Lin Shi, I'll give you one last chance, where is your second child now?"

Lin Shi cried: "My lord, what Xiaomin said is the truth. Zhier did go to the capital for a visit. Xiaomin didn't lie. Please check it out!"

Seeing this, Xu Jinhai said impatiently: "Pull it out and beat it hard!"

"Yes, my lord." Regardless of Lin Shi's struggle, the guard carried him out of the door.

Not long after, there was a crackling sound outside, followed by Lin Shi's screams.

Ji Linglan bowed and said: "My lord, I want to visit Lin Zhi's bedroom."

Xu Jinhai stood up and said: "Let's go, I will accompany you, I will also look at this person who has read sage books for a long time, why is he so black-hearted."

Ji Linglan reminded: "My lord, the scene needs to be maintained, don't let people ruin it."

Xu Jinhai looked at the guards around him, and said: "I heard what Ah Lan said clearly, whoever dares to do something here will directly serve me with a stick."

The guards around responded, "Yes, my lord."

Xu Jinhai walked in front, Ji Linglan followed beside, and the master followed behind very discerningly.

The courtyard where Lin Zhi lives is just behind the courtyard where the Wang family lives. You can walk through a moon gate, and you don't need to go through the front courtyard gate. This is one of the reasons why Ji Linglan speculates that Lin Zhi is the murderer. one.

Ji Linglan stood in the courtyard and looked around. There were three main rooms in this courtyard, two east rooms, and the kitchen and utility room were on the opposite side.Compared with the front yard where Wang lived, this place is much bigger.

Ji Linglan walked to the east wing first, pushed open the door and looked in. According to the layout, it can be seen that this is a study.There are pens, ink, paper and inkstone neatly placed on the table, and there is a simple bookshelf behind the table with some books on it.

Ji Linglan walked into the room, looked around, and took out a book, on the cover was written "Da Fu Lv", he opened it and looked, there were no words on it, but pictures, and he waited to see the contents inside At that moment, Ji Linglan blushed and threw the book on the table in a hurry.

Xu Jinhai was a little strange, so he also picked up the book and flipped through it, and said angrily: "This Lin Zhi is really insulting and blaspheming the law, he should be killed!"

Ji Linglan was also a little speechless, this Lin Zhi is really weird, he actually put the cover of "Da Fu Law" on the outside of the erotic picture, even if he didn't kill anyone, he would definitely not be able to live with this crime.

The master took out a few more books at random, and found that there were several similar erotic pictures, all of which were covered with other covers.Ji Linglan also dug out some used paper from the cabinet under the table, with some unsightly pictures drawn on it, most of them were adults and children.

Ji Linglan frowned, and said, "My lord, it seems that Lin Zhi has a love/child/addiction."

"Lover/children/crazy?" Although Xu Jinhai had never heard of this term, he could see Lin Zhi's hobby by looking at those pictures, and said angrily: "It's an insult to the gentleman! It's an insult to the gentleman!"

Thinking of the disheveled clothes of Lin Xiaoling who died at the door, combined with the things found in Lin Zhi's study, Ji Linglan could roughly guess why Wang and Lin Zhi quarreled.

"My lord, this Wang family has a son and a daughter, and Lin Xiaoling is dead, what about her son?"

Xu Jinhai looked at Chang Lin at the door and asked, "Chang Lin, where is Wang's son?"

After being reminded by Ji Linglan, Chang Lin also understood, his face became ugly, and he said, "Return to your lord, Lin Xiaoqiang has been living with Lin Shi and his wife."

Hearing this, Ji Linglan's face also became ugly, and then she walked out of the study and walked towards another wing.As soon as he opened the door, Ji Linglan smelled a strange smell, which he was too familiar with, it was the smell of rot.Ji Linglan looked at the bed and found someone lying on it. She walked over in three or two steps and found an eight or nine-year-old boy lying on it. His eyes were closed and his face was flushed. .

Ji Linglan lifted the quilt, and the rotten smell became stronger, and it came from the boy.

"What does it smell like? It stinks!" Master held his nose and entered the door together with Xu Jinhai.

Ji Linglan looked at the boy's lower body, and there were white maggots crawling on the gray pants.Ji Linglan seemed to have thought of something, anger appeared in his calm eyes, he carefully untied the boy's belt, and slowly took off his pants.There was a stench, and then densely packed maggots came into view, crawling on his rotting thighs and lower body, gnawing on the rotten meat on them.

"vomit!"

Seeing this scene, the master covered his mouth and ran out, Chang Lin and Xu Jinhai's faces turned livid.

Ji Linglan suppressed the anger in her heart, and said as calmly as possible: "Brother Chang, help me get a basin of clean water."

Chang Lin responded, turned and walked out.

Ji Linglan turned to look at Xu Jinhai, and said, "Master Xu, please send someone to invite Mr. Zhang, I need him to help me treat this child."

"Okay, I'll let someone invite you now."

As a county magistrate, Xu Jinhai had seen quite a few corpses, but this was the first time he had seen a living person covered in maggots, and he was very angry because he was such a child.Thinking back to that Lin Shi who was still thinking of the law to exonerate Lin Zhi, the anger in his heart became more and more intense, and he turned and walked out of the room.

Ji Linglan touched the boy's head, and it turned out that he had a fever. He took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve pocket and bought some anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics for him.From the dissecting room, took the scalpel, anesthesia and alcohol.

When Chang Lin came back from fetching water, he took a piece of clean cotton cloth and carefully handled the maggots on the boy's body.Most of his genitals have been eaten, and the anus is also prolapsed and has begun to rot.Such a serious injury, the boy didn't even feel the slightest bit, Ji Linglan's heart thumped, but he didn't stop what he was doing until Mr. Zhang came over, and he was still cleaning up.

Mr. Zhang looked at the miserable state of the boy on the bed, his face was so gloomy that water dripped out, and he said, "What a beast!"

Ji Linglan didn't speak, and cleaned up carefully.Seeing this, Mr. Zhang moved a stool and sat by the bed to feel the boy's pulse. After a while, he withdrew his hand, sighed, and said, "Ah Lan, don't worry about it, he is already dying."

Ji Linglan's hand stopped, feeling very uncomfortable. In fact, he knew a long time ago that the boy would not be rescued. He just hoped for a miracle to happen, but the reality is always so cruel.

"Please, Zhang Laobai, come and go, you... go back, leave this to me, and let him go in a decent way." Ji Linglan said, her eyes were a little sore.

Zhang Lao patted Ji Linglan on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, don't be too sad, death is a relief for him."

Having been with Ji Linglan for two years, Mr. Zhang understood his temperament, and it is rare to maintain a pure and true nature. Therefore, in the past two years, he has been cultivating Ji Linglan as his heir and treating him as his own child.

Ji Linglan took a deep breath and said, "Old Zhang, people often say that 'a tiger's poison does not eat its son'. Although he is not Lin Zhi's son, he is also a relative in his blood. How can there be such a thing in this world?" Such a cruel person?"

"Alan, you are too kind and naive. You have seen too little darkness. There are many dirtier things in this world than this."

Ji Linglan is a forensic doctor. Every year, he disposes of various corpses, dismembered, burned, and killed by various cruel means. He can quickly deal with them with a calm mind, because they are all dead.But the boy in front of him was still alive, but his body had already started to rot, and he was helpless.That kind of strong sense of powerlessness is really impossible for people to face calmly.

Ji Linglan stopped talking, but continued to clean his hands. He carefully, little by little, cleaned off the maggots that he knew could not be cleaned off the boy one by one.

"Who are you?"

The weak voice came to his ears, Ji Linglan raised his head to look at the boy, those bright eyes were looking at him.

Ji Linglan felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He knew that this was a flashback, so he calmed down and said softly: "I am a doctor, and I am treating your illness."

"Doctor?" The boy frowned slightly, and said: "Doctor, I don't feel pain anymore, can I stop treating her? My mother is tired of earning money, and I don't want to cause her any more trouble."

Ji Linglan's eyes were sour, and she said as calmly as possible: "Don't worry, I won't charge you, and you haven't caused your mother any trouble."

The boy seemed to be relieved, and said with a smile: "Thank you doctor, you are a good person."

Ji Linglan gently stroked the boy's face and said, "Son, is there anything you want to do? If so, just tell me, and I can help you."

The boy's eyes dimmed a little, and he said, "I miss my mother, but my mother is very busy every day..."

"Why don't you go to your mother?"

"Because my grandparents won't let me go, every time I go to see my mother, my grandparents will make things difficult for her. And the second uncle, he said that if I don't obey, he will drive my mother and sister out."

"Good boy, your mother is waiting for you. You will see your mother and your sister soon." Ji Linglan couldn't help the sadness in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes unconsciously.

"Brother, I really envy you for your medical skills, but it's a pity that I'm too stupid, I don't know anything, and I can't help my mother, so I can only try not to cause her trouble."

Ji Linglan choked up and said: "You are not stupid, if I have the chance, I can teach you."

"Brother, am I dying?"

Looking into his eyes, Ji Linglan couldn't tell a lie, so she could only ask softly: "Are you afraid?"

A look of disappointment appeared in the boy's eyes, and he asked, "Brother, will death...will it hurt?"

Ji Linglan shook her head and said, "If you die, you won't feel any pain."

"Then I'm not afraid. It's just that I don't want to die. I want to grow up quickly and take care of my mother and sister. Brother, can you save me?"

"I'm sorry..." Ji Linglan turned his head away, he didn't dare to look into the boy's eyes.

After being silent for a while, the boy said again: "Brother, I miss my mother, can you help me to see if she is busy?"

Ji Linglan took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, and said: "She's not busy, you can see her in a while."

"Okay, thank you brother."

The boy was full of expectations, but until he swallowed his last breath, he couldn't see the mother he was thinking of again.

The eyes of everyone present were red, and the room was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.Ji Linglan cleaned up the boy's body, changed into new clothes, and then turned to leave.

Lin Zhi was quickly arrested. He had scratches on the back of his hands and arms. He refused to admit it at first, but after a few boards, he did it all.Although Ji Linglan had solid evidence to prove that Lin Zhi was the murderer, he did not do that, but allowed Xu Jinhai to punish Lin Zhi.This is the first time since time travel, Ji Linglan has watched the development of the situation from here.

That day, Lin Zhi did go to Kyoto with his friends, but he came back in the evening.Because of a quarrel with a friend, the two broke up. Lin Zhi was in a bad mood, so he drank a few more glasses of wine at home.

After drinking, Lin Zhi planned to ravage Lin Xiaoqiang, but seeing Lin Xiaoqiang's half-dead state, he lost interest, and then thought of his six-year-old niece.

With the help of wine, he walked through the moon gate to the front yard and knocked on Mrs. Wang's door.Seeing that he was drunk, Mrs. Wang wanted to close the door, but he broke in.He pushed away Wang, and went straight to Lin Xiaoling on the bed. Seeing that something was wrong, Wang hurriedly chased after him, fought with him, and was strangled to death on the bed.Seeing this, Lin Xiaoling ran away quickly, and Lin Zhi, who was red-eyed, smashed to death with a candlestick on the table.

The case was solved, and the matter was basically the same as what Ji Linglan speculated. Xu Jinhai praised Ji Linglan a lot, but Ji Linglan was in a heavy heart, especially after Lin Shi and his wife planned to bury their three mothers with straw mats.

For the first time, Ji Linglan scolded the two of them harshly, ignoring their snarls, and let the three of them leave with their corpses.After buying a coffin and burying the three of them, he felt better.
